TELCON Gen. Scowcroft/Sec. Kissinger Sunday, Nove mber 25, 1973, 12:50 p.m. K: Two things: I am not sure that those two paragraphsyou cut out of the speech -- they are a little over stated on the foreign policy on page 2. S: We can put them back in. It seems SO narrowly focussed I did not see m to think we should bring foreign policy back in the thing. K: Yes. S: It is not a broad speech. It is very narrow. But if you would like them back in it is no problem. K: If you said something while the resumption would reduce shortages we cannot plan the future on the capriceso of far away governments -- something like this. That is h why I announced. S: Right. K: He called me and he wants to send a special emissary to Saudi Arabia to get them to turn the oil on. S: Oh? K: He does that and he is in deep trouble with me. We cannot have this now. S: Oh, no. That would be the worst xhxxxx possible thing to do. K: Besides, aid will be refused. It will put us in the position of the supplicant. S: Exactly the wrong thing to do. Where do you think he got that idea? K: Probably from some of his oil friends. No sense worrying about it. He will calm down, don't you think?' S: I would hope so. Goodness. That would be a disastor. K: Sisco came in and said he is resigning because I will not give him that job and he has been offered a college presidency.
